Adding to this: I am convinced that who has PSCS has a very good app. There are things that are made much easier, some inprovements for people with better-than-average digital cameras (RAW mode must also be supported on the camera), less gaps in histograms when tweaking levels due to 16 bit support, etc etc.
For me, personally, I see no immediate need to upgrade. I take a lot of pictures, but I don't own a digital camera as DC's don't yet answer my needs (most of all due to a lack of money to buy a single reflex digital with three separate lenses, and a wide angle lens that matches a 20mm on trad. camera's isn't available due to the smaller sensitive surface of the cam.).
I can do all I want with 7, there's still so much to discover, and, adding to this the fact that over here the upgrade is at least one third more expensive, I wait, and see what's left after the publicity hurricane has calmed down.
No more than that.
I hope to read reviews from our gang here at PSG because I know them. So Rick and the others: please, when you know CS better: let me know your personal thoughts and impressions that fall outside the Adobe brochure.
Photoshop CS? 
Thanks folks....that clears things up! Like Erik, I?m going to wait and for the same reasons. The 16 bit feature sounds much better than the work around meathods that are available to us.
Rick......I?m switching over to lap steel due to arthritis in my left hand. I?m learning a few blues licks at the moment.
